The D3 has landed! Now to find the missing jigsaw pieces!

After much shopping around and Autotrader perusing a shiny Java Black '56 reg D3 HSE is now sitting on my driveway. I'm currently suffering from a tad of permacious grinnous!

I'm not one for "blinging" out my car with all the bells and whistles, but I would like to replace a few items that the previous owner obviously stripped/lost/left lying in his garage before returning the car to the lease company that I subsequently bought it off.

Immediate priority are;
Removable Towbar & Electrics - Already sourced
Floor Mats - Need carpet ones but dealer prices are way too high!
Key - Only came with one key, the sales guy happily kept that one quiet 'till I went to collect the car and I was hardly going to renege on the deal at that stage! (to be fair, I only had one key for the 3-series BMW that I traded in!)

No doubt I'll find a few other items that I need (e.g. wheel brace when I'm in the middle of fook-knows-where with a flat tyre!) but these are the ones I'd like to sort out immediately!

Good shout, even if he can't do anything with the mats I'll still need to bite the bullet on the key!

Thanks!

He'll certainly be able to offer the LR mats... worth the extra IMHO, I have the genuine ones in mine and they're very good quality, thick and well fitting

No worries, I'm out on a test drive for half hour.

I'm in for the rear of today then.

Just text or call.
